Another Problem
(Department of Mysteries)
Unspeakable 23 was in charge of magical ritual books. They were an expert on them. Every morning they would go through and check to make sure every book was there and in the correct place. 23 choked in shock when one was actually missing. They quickly ran to the logbook. They checked to see who removed the book.
This logbook was special. It had been a gift from a god. It magically updates whenever a book is removed from the shelf. It would log the name of the book, the date and time it was removed, and who was the one to remove it. When they saw who removed the book they felt faint. This was going to be catastrophic. They quickly ran to the head unspeakable.
"What is it?" They asked, seeing 23 so upset.
"Look." They handed the logbook over.
"Oh shit." They gasped. "H-how?"
"I have no idea." 23 said.
"This is bad." The head unspeakable said.
"I know. Do you want me to inform the minister?" 23 asked.
"No. I will." They said.
"Good luck."
"I'll need it." They sighed.
"I know." 23 said.
The head unspeakable grabbed the logbook and went to go speak to the minister. To his luck he found him on his way back to his office. That meant his death eater secretary didn't know they were talking. All they needed was his master to know about this. He quickly stopped him.
"Sir, could you come to my office?" They asked.
"Of course." He said, worried.
They quickly went to the head unspeakable office. He then handed over the logbook. The minister looked it over and paled when he came to the last entry. He looked at the unspeakable with wide eyes.
"How?" He asked.
"I have no idea. One of the unspeakables saw and brought it to me. I will be investigating this but I know you need to be aware." They answered.
"Thank you. I will inform Madam Bones and her team. They also need to be aware." He said.
"I know. So do Heir Potter, his family, and of course the Dumbledores and Grindelwald." They said.
"They do. Those poor people just can't catch a break." He sighed.
"No they can't." They said, feeling bad for them.
"Please keep me informed." He said.
"I promise." They said.
"Good." He left after that. 'I wish I could catch a break as well.'
Fudge made his way to Madam Bones' office. He was happy to see she was there. She saw him and knew it wasn't good. He shut the door behind him and put up a privacy ward. He then told her what was going on.
"Dedalus Diggle took out a book from the unspeakable's library. It was a book on rituals. Soul Transference and Body Revival." He informed her.
"No." She paled.
"Yes. He is trying to find a way to bring Dumbledore back." He said.
"Do you know how he entered the department of mysteries? The door won't open if you aren't magically registered as an approved person." She said.
"No. The head unspeakable is looking into it." He said.
"How can he still be loyal to that bastard?" She asked.
"That is something that escapes me as well." He admitted.
"What do we do?" She asked.
"I am going to find out the exact rituals in that book. We cremated the body and disposed of the ashes so he can't use that. The soul transference is what I am worried about." Fudge said.
"So am I." She said.
"As much as I hate to do this, we need someone on this. Diggle needs to be arrested. Even if he doesn't bring that monster back, he still stole from the DOM." He said.
"I know. I'll have Moody take care of it. He knows Diggle better than the others." She said.
"Good. I need to alert the Davets. If Diggle brings that monster back they need to be warned and so do the Dumbledores and Grindelwald." He told her.
"Good luck." She said.
"Thank you. How is the other case going?" He asked.
"We have an unspeakable with knowledge of the muggle world searching the muggle side of Riddle. So far we have learned they were rich and have three different homes. Two of them are unused. The third is under a fidelius charm." She informed him.
"Let me guess, the manor located near his uncle's home?" He asked.
"Yes. We have searched the other two and nothing. We are certain he never even knew about them. Still we set things up to catch him if he does go to one of them." She said.
"Good." The minister was relieved. "It really feels like we are starting to make progress."
"Yes we are." She said, also relieved by it.
"Never in all my years did I believe I would have to deal with two monsters and at the same time." He sighed.
"Neither did I." She said.
"Well, I shall take my leave." He said.
"Good luck." She said.
"Thank you. I am going to need it." Fudge sighed before leaving.
He made his way to the office. Luckily his secretary wasn't the wiser. He then warded his office as he made a few fire calls. First he called the Dumbledores and informed them of what was going on. Luckily both were together at the time. Neither were happy but at least they didn't blame him. Adeline already began thinking up a spell to help.
Next he called Grindelwald. The man was shaking and had to be medicated to calm down. An auror was placed to keep the poor man safe. He felt for the man. He had spent most of his life being tormented and raped by Albus Dumbledore and he knew the thought of him coming back terrified the man.
Next he called Fay Davet. She thanked him for the information. Oh she was pissed but not at the minister. She was pissed off at the idiot that wanted to bring back Dumbledore. They all just hoped they found Diggle before he could revive Dumbledore.
(With Diggle)
With a little laugh Diggle ran inside his home. Not the one in Britain. No he didn't want to risk it in case they caught onto him. No, this one was in Turkey. He then went into the basement. There was a man in the middle of the room. He was tied up.
Since the ministry cremated Albus and got rid of the ashes he knew he needed another. This man was from Turkey and a powerful wizard. He was a friend of the Diggle family and foolishly trusted him. It was how he was lucky to get a hold of him. He accepted and drank the firewhisky Diggle had offered him.
He then took him to the basement and tied him up. He had stolen some magical restraints and kept him out. He sat down and began looking through the book he stole. He soon came upon the perfect ritual. It required both a potion and a spell.
"Shit. This potion is too complicated for me." He growled.
Diggle knew he would need to pay someone to make it. He just needed to find that person. This potion was illegal since soul transference was illegal. That meant he had to pay a lot to get it made and find someone willing to do it. It was most likely a criminal or a dark wizard. Still he was going to need to do it, even if he hated to.
"Bringing Albus back is worth it. For the greater good." He said.
"Master?" It was a house elf.
"What?" He nastily asked.
"Someone is at the door for you master." He told him.
"Who?" He asked.
"An auror." He said.
"What?! Why?!" Diggle asked.
"Lady Demir reported that she last saw her husband with you." He said.
"Oh. Hide him." He said.
"Yes sir." With a snap of his finger the restrained man disappeared.
Diggle stood up and went upstairs. He put what he believed to be a charming smile on his face and answered the door. To his surprise there were two aurors. One was a Turkish auror and the other was Moody. Now he was worried.
"W-what is going on?" He asked.
"I am looking for Lord Demir and he is here to search for that book." He said, pointing to the book still in Diggle's hand.
"Oh." He paled.
"That book is enough cause to let me arrest you." Moody said. "If that is okay with our friend here." He looked at the other auror.
"Yes it is. Just try and see if he knows the whereabouts of Lord Demir." He said.
"Of course." He smirked.
"NO!" Diggle slammed the door.
"Seriously?" The two aurors said.
Moody knocked down the door and the other auror sent a spell that stunned the idiotic wizard. Moody took the man into custody and the Turkish auror searched the house. He found something in the basement. It was a ward. He quickly removed it and found the missing lord. He was then taken to the hospital. Meanwhile Moody took Diggle to the Turkish ministry for questioning.
